SPOTLIGHT ON – GOOD CHRISTIAN BITCHES – Contest

About the bookThe GCBs of Hillside Park Presbyterian are praying for Amanda Vaughn–or so they claim. Will their evil gossip destroy her reputation, or will she show them exactly how to turn the other cheek?

Amanda Vaughn needs some heaven-sent help. She’s divorced her cheating husband and fled, along with her two teenagers, back to her hometown, Hillside Park, a Dallas suburb so upper-class that the question isn’t where to bank, but whose family owns the bank. Amanda is thrilled to be back in Texas—after twelve years in Southern California, she’s ready to leave behind her shallow, Godless life and return to the welcoming Christian world where she grow up. Or at least that’s the plan . . .

But when she arrives, she’s met with some Texas-sized trouble. Her old friends, neighbors, and fellow church members treat Amanda like a long-lost friend . . . until her back is turned. Then the claws come out. Amanda finds herself trapped in a world of salacious rumors, secret affairs, and Bible-study sessions gone terribly wrong. And what’s even more puzzling is that a secret admirer is sending Amanda lavish gifts. Why, she wonders, would anyone send a Mercedes when a simple dinner invitation would do?

Packed with schemes, drama, and a Southern setting more fun than a barbecue at Southfork, GOOD CHRISTIAN BITCHES has humor, sass, and an unforgettable cast of characters.

Twenty years ago, Amanda Vaughn was the queen bee of Dallas, Texas. Now she’s back, and it’s payback for being an original mean girl. Will the good women of her hometown welcome her with open arms, or preach the golden rule while stabbing her in the back?

I watched it Sunday night and laughed the whole time. I’ve been in non-denominational churches all the way to Southern Baptist churches and there’s always a group like this…

As for who I wouldn’t want to meet from high school… I don’t have anyone I wouldn’t want to meet. I didn’t have this kind of issue in high school. I wasn’t a mean girl, but we didn’t have the typical mean girls either. I went to a small arts high school and it was fairly new to the community at the time, so we were all trying to feel our way and it took all of us to make a success. There were people I didn’t like and people who didn’t like me, but… it was pretty much the church going crowd and the non-church going crowd and we all just kinda kept to our own.

Don’t enter me, I just wanted to comment. I don’t know if I’ll stick to the show, but for a while I’ll keep watching.

I watched the pilot and just loved it. I hated going to my class reunion since all the snooty girls were all sitting at the same table just like 30 years ago. But that’s okay. I am successful in my heart!

I was so looking forward to watching it and somehow missed it anyway :(. But I do plan on watching it this Sunday :). And as to who from school I wouldn’t want to run into…..well that’s pretty easy…I wouldn’t want to run into anyone!!!!

went to a snooty high school with people I didn’t mind walking away from after graduation. I wasn’t from old money but had enough money not to fit in with the average kids. I was in limbo for all of high school. I went to my 10 year reunion and decided my 20 year was not worth my effort.

I can’t believe I missed the premiere of GCB! But I will be watching b/c I love David James Elliott!

Watched the premier and liked it. It was funny and at time oh so true. I dreaded going to class reunions and after the first two I stopped going, because the snotty bitches were still stuck together thicker than thieves.

As for high school I didn’t really have any issues, but then again there is no one that I wanna see again or anyone that I would be scared to see. If I haven’t seen you since high school then you have no impact on my life now. It helps that I still live around were I graduated from.

Missed the premiere but I will be watching this Sunday. The least person I would like to meet up from school…everyone? LOL! No seriously, don’t think I have anybody who I wouldn’t want to see but don’t know if they would wanna see me.

OMG, I kept seeing the commercials and had no idea what GCB stood for. lol I did not see the premiere but I am going to try and find it. I’m going to DVR it right now. Hmm, who from high school would I not want to bump into ever again? Probably Al Williamson. He was a star football player hooked on steroids. He was always so mean to me and I had to sit across from him in class.

I only caught a few minutes. I was surprised Leslie Bibb was playing the mom of a teen, they usually skew her younger. My dad, of all people, really liked it, so I’m definitely going to catch it this Sun.

I remember when this book first came out. We had bookmarks in our store (I worked at a bookstore at the time) and some people loved and then others threw a fit ’cause of the title. LOL I live in Texas and Texas is still apart of the bible belt so, you can imagine. ;D

I’ve seen and plan to see the next episode. After that? Not sure. Depends how good they are. I enjoyed my ten year reunion. My 20th is in a couple of years or so and I’m hoping more people will come. Less than a 25% showed up last time. Loved how some people that were sure they would be ‘big’ weren’t. LOL

I did not see the premiere of the show on Sunday. I think I have seen the commercials for the show but didn’t realize what it was. The show sounds very funny and I will definitely try to see it this Sunday. I see most of the people that I went to high school with from time to time because I have lived in the same small Texas town my whole life and many of the people that I went to school with still live here as well.

I did not get to see this on Sunday night. I think I saw some commercials for the show but I didn’t realize what it was. The show sounds very funny and I definitely try to watch on Sunday. I see most of the people that I went to school with from time to time because I have lived in the same small Texas town my whole life and many of the people that I went to school with have stayed here as well.

Yes I watched the premiere. It was HILARIOUS! I am definitely going to be watching the series. There isn’t anyone from school that I worry about. I was in the middle, not popular enough to be a “mean Girl” and not unpopular enough to gain their notice or attention. *g* I just cruised on through.

I missed the premiere 🙁 I am going to set my DVR for next week. As far as the high school mean girl, I ran into her a few years ago. I almost fell out laughing because she was trying to be so nice because she wanted something from me. **Pfftt**jepebATverizonDOTnet

I watched the pilot and I loved it. I can’t wait until Sunday. I don’t really fear running into anyone from high school. Most of the CHILDREN who thought they were the greatest and should be worshiped in high school, have made bad choices and are not happy.

I watched the pilot online after it aired because all of my favorite shows come on on sunday. After seeing guilty pleasures and so many others post about it I decided to watch it. I am really glad that I did! I haven’t laughed so much and so loud in one show in a such long time! Anyone who has been to dallas knows how spot on it is. It was very refreshing to see Annie Potts in something amazing again. I loved her in designing women back in the day, and lemme tell ya…. Her character takes the cake. Theres just something about a rich southern alcoholic grandma with lots of anecdotes that cracks me up. The character of Amanda played by Leslie Bibb is very interesting. A spoiled former mean girl who through tragedy involving her husband and her best friend in a fellatio related auto accident changes her ways. Something tells me her mean girl roots will return dealing with these “christian bitches” Definitely a must see! For me personally, it’s my new favorite already. So much juice in one episode!!! Can’t wait to tune in tomorrow to see what happens!
